9 ½ Weeks
The culmination of the sexual revolution of an entire generation!
Floral Books is republishing Elizabeth McNeill's literary work that inspired and characterized an entire generation when it was adapted for the big screen.
The most visceral fears grow along with our interest and arousal as the heroine calmly and one by one describes the stages that take off her love life. The second time with her lover, he asks if he can blindfold her. The third brings her to the brink of orgasm and makes her beg for more. The next he uses the same scarf to tie her wrists. Earlier that morning, he had sent thirteen roses to her office. And as the romance unfolds, we get completely carried away, just like the author, and we wonder how far her story will go and how much more she intends to reveal to us...
Forty years have passed since 1978, when the author under the pen name Elizabeth McNeill published her romantic memoir 9 1/2 Weeks. The book caused a huge sensation, much bigger than one might expect given that the so-called "sexual revolution" had already been underway for over ten years.
The film adaptation of the book, starring Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger, left an era and was described as the "hottest" Hollywood film of all time!
